Grammar

Sentences have SOV order. All words consist of sound units which are usually made up of CV (consonant-vowel) pairs, though vowel-only or consonant-only units are also possible. Final consonants are tacked onto the preceding unit. Every unit takes the same time to pronounce.

Translation:

• 1 Now the whole world had one language with the same words.
• 2 Journeying eastwards, men found a plain in Shinar and settled there.
• 3 They said to one another: "Come! Let's make brick and burn it thorougly!" They used bricks instead of stone and tar instead of mortar.
• 4 Then they said: "Come! Let's build a city for us with a tower up to the sky, to make a name for us, so that we are not scattered over the whole earth."
• 5 But HaShem came down to see the city and the tower men were building.
• 6 HaShem said: "If as one people with one language they have begun doing this, nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.
• 7 Come! Let's go down and confuse their language, so that they will not understand each other."
• 8 So HaShem scattered them over the whole earth, and they stopped building the city.
• 9 Therefore the city was named Babel, because there HaShem confused the language of the whole world; from there HaShem scattered them over the whole earth.
